A template for leaders who own the numbers, the team, and the customer experience.
Experienced General Manager with 8 years in hospitality and retail operations. Skilled at driving revenue growth, leading large teams, and delivering exceptional customer experiences across multiple locations.
General Manager CVs need to demonstrate full P&L accountability, strategic thinking, and people leadership. Recruiters want to see revenue figures, team sizes, budget responsibility, and tangible improvements you drove. If you managed a site, region, or department, quantify its scale.
P&L management, strategic planning, team development, performance management, budget control, stakeholder management, change management, and commercial awareness. Industry-specific skills matter too: revenue management for hospitality, shrinkage reduction for retail, throughput for logistics.
Focusing too much on day-to-day management and not enough on strategic impact. "Managed daily operations" is expected of every manager. "Redesigned operational workflow reducing costs by 18% while improving NPS from 72 to 89" shows strategic thinking.
Two pages maximum for experienced managers. Lead with a summary that states your scope: revenue managed, team size, number of locations. Use bold formatting for key metrics.
